Labour Day Long weekend..yay!!

Saturday........usual chores followed by a haircut then a  trip to Chermside Shopping Centre.

Westfield Chermside

 I'm going to Airlie Beach for a mini break in a few weeks and need to purchase a pair of swimming bathers. What a soul destroying experience that turned out to be....lol....come to think of it buying bathers has always been a torture. Needless to say I am still bather-less .

As commiseration I hit the movies and saw "Annabelle". I got my usual Choc Top and popcorn and scared myself silly for the next two hours. I felt the need to go home and dispose of all dolls, teddy bears and any other inanimate object with eyes...even a couple of potatoes. I didn't of course but I have been eyeing all of  them with increasing suspicion.


I hit the shops after the movie and got rid of at least 3 million chores that have been hanging over me for ages.

Later picked Lee up from her babysitting gig and stayed up way too late talking and TVing.

Sunday....the plan was to return Lee to her apartment and head off to the Gold Coast to visit and lunch with my sister. The best laid plans fell apart when she took ill so Lee and I visited yet another Westfield......this time at Carindale.. New plan was lunch and movies. I had my first Sushi train experience. Little yummy thing going past on a conveyor belt....all looking delicious but really having no idea what was in anything. I started off safe with spring rolls and got more adventurous as I went along. Made some lucky choices and one really bad one but overall it was great.

We had some time to kill so went to the library and poked around for a while and then to the movie. Saw "Gone Girl"...a book I read a couple of years back. It was very good....and very convoluted....and the main character made Annabelle's wickedness look as benign as a Barbie doll.

An early night and nine hours sleep finished a good couple of days.......and still Monday to go....double yay!!
